On a brightly moonlit Tuesday evening at around eleven o'clock on the Barossa to Clare road, two young blokes are cruising their way to work the midnight shift for the last vintage of the century, in a beat-up old Toyota Corolla “The Brown Bullet”.
During the drive home, we would often crave a soft slurpy wine to wash down a hard night's work. Out of this ideal wedecided to join forces and make a Grenache based wine to be enjoyed whenever the mood takes hold. As such Massena Vineyards first wine “The Moonlight Run” was born.
The two of us have been mates since High School and have been producing Barossa wine since that initial vintage in 1999,
concentrating on the traditional values and techniques which have made the wines of this region unique.
We source our fruit from dedicated growers in the North Western Barossa areas of Greenock, Kalimna and Koonunga Hill,
providing fruit from dry farmed, low yielding vines up to 120 years of age.
Whilst we work mostly with traditional Barossa varieties Shiraz, Grenache and Mataro from these growers, we also enjoy
experimenting and trialling new varieties in the Barossa such as Petite Sirah, Barbera, Dolcetto, Roussanne, Saperavi and
Tannat. In true artisan style each vineyard section is kept separate during vinification and elevage, until the final blends areassembled. Read less
